Use
Phenylmercuric borate is mainly used as an antimicrobial preservative
in topical pharmaceutical formulations. A number of
adverse reactions to mercury-containing preservatives have been
reported; see Phenylmercuric Nitrate.
Although phenylmercuric borate is an irritant, it has been
reported to be less so than either phenylmercuric acetate or phenylmercuric nitrate.(1) There is, however, some cross-sensitization
potential with other mercurial preservatives.
Systemic absorption has been reported following regular use of a
hand disinfectant soap containing 0.04% phenylmercuric borate,
resulting in an increase in the estimated total daily body load of
mercury from 30–100 mg per 24 hours.
